    • About Me

      I am a 32 yr old woman that suffers from chroic pain syndrome and degenerative joint disease, have severe feet problems, and suffer from anxiety and panic attacks. I cannot seem to get any relief! I struggle everyday to take care of my 6yr old, and husband. There are somedays I just can't even move. I am in the process of trying to figure out what is right for me. I have been off of work for over 2mths now after my last surgery on my foot, and don't even know if I can go back?!?! I am very outgoing, blunt person, with alot of caring in me! I am a true friend and there till the end!

    • Close Anxiety

      My father at age 50 got terminal ill with cancer! I was his primary caregiver for 11mths. When he was getting close to dying, I started experiencing anxiety to the fullest, it has never gone away! Sometimes I even have panic attacks! I hate the feeling of both of them!

      Treatments

      Xanax Working / Worked
      Usually works but sometimes if my anxiety is bad it takes awhile!
    • Close Chronic Pain

      Well about 21/2 yrs ago I went to a pain mgmt dr. for severe headaches, a bulge in my left rib cage..etc.! Well, he did a cervical steriod injection into my neck! I woke up in the procedure room and screamed! He said he was stopping procedure! I woke up in recovery in pain I never thought was possible! I now have nerve damage in my left arm. I had foot surgery on the same side because I started having all these problems on my left side after the injection! I live with chronic pain, w/no help?!?

      Treatments

      Cymbalta Working / Worked
      Didn't like the way it made me feel!
      Flexeril Working / Worked
      Made me toooo sleepy!
      Heat Working / Worked
      Helps some with the bulge!
      Hydrocodone Working / Worked
      Helps some to get me thru the day! But dosn't help the nerve problem!

      Made me where I couldn't concentrate on anything..felt like a zombie!
      Mobic Working / Worked
      Allergic
      Naproxen Working / Worked

      Oxycodone Working / Worked
      Worked for some of my pain, but not all!?
      Physical Therapy Working / Worked
      Is for the birds when it comes to what I am going thru! Didn't help!
      TENS Working / Worked
      Helped some while I wore it, but as soon as I took it off it didn't help at all!

      Had a bad reaction to it! My body dosn't seem to react well to lots of medications!
